What it is

Organic coconut meat is the white flesh found inside mature coconuts. It is harvested from coconuts grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. The meat can be eaten fresh, dried, or processed into various forms like shredded, flaked, or ground into flour.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use coconut meat for its rich, tropical flavor and creamy texture. It adds sweetness and body to foods. Common uses include dairy-free milk alternatives, yogurt, baked goods, trail mixes, and desserts.

Health notes

Coconut meat is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for food use. It is a source of dietary fiber and healthy fats, particularly medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). International bodies like JECFA have evaluated coconut oil, a related product, but specific evaluations for coconut meat may vary. At typical consumption levels, it is considered safe.

Allergen info

Coconut is not one of the nine major allergens identified by the FDA. It is botanically classified as a fruit, not a tree nut, though some individuals with tree nut allergies may react to coconut. It does not contain gluten.
